Pat thank you for always being my Cherie quilta sista everyday! I live alone and have been in isolation since the first week in m March so your positive energy is the highlight of my day and keeps me motivated with my mask making and ufo work. Keep spreading the quilt love!
Since I live on the west coast, the Fireside Chat is what I do Tuesday first thing in the morning. This morning I will combine the orphan block and sorting challenges. I have orphan blocks in several different places, getting them all in one place seems a good goal. Have a lovely day.
Good morning! It's always a joy to watch your videos. And sorting it is...where to begin! i like your challenge.
Thank you. Have a great day Pat. 💗😊💗
I wake up and look forward to see your video each morning. Thank you for taking all the time to do them. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you! Stay well.
Sorting, yes. I have been sorting, I need to make some shelf bins to help with this, omg that would be another project. You have motivated me to cut up scraps into 2-1/2" squares started that around the time you started the "Traffic Jam" project. I also set aside enough 2-1/2" squares to make a flower from each quilt, or favorite fabrics to make a flower for my grandmother's garden quilt top.
I was just gifted what I consider a ton of fabric scraps that somebody was getting rid of. There are boxes and bags I'd stuff... as a beginning quilter, I find it soooo exciting since I don't actually have a "stash" of fabric like I read about. It's too much to sort today, but I think that will be my next project - to sort it, cut them into manageable sizes like I've seen you refer to Pat and then put them into containers. Can't wait - how exciting!!
You need to design some coffee fabric! Lol! I have another day off tomorrow, so hopefully I can get more of my fabric in order. Thanks so much for all of these daily videos, They really encourage me to get it together.
I sorted my pinks last week like you're doing your greens. You definitely have one piece of green for Childhood Games and the pony would be cute on a Stay-at-Home block. I think I'll continue sorting fabrics and supplies that I got when my mother-in-law moved from her home into a room at my oldest brother-in-law"s home.
I’m currently doing the daily block. I don’t have any novelty prints but I do have a ton of Christmas prints! All sizes! So I’ve made 74 blocks and will cut cornerstones and sashing. Love the daily calendar too. Blessings on your day!
I just finished a quiltalong with Edyta from LBQ. When I was finished I sorted all my scraps! So worth it to be neat and tidy.
We’ve just learned up here in Ontario that isolation will continue for one more month. Sooooo I hope you might be thinking about a May Chat a Day. Like May Marvels! Enjoy checking in with you daily!
Thanks for doing this each day Pat. I need to see you each morning with a suggestion of something to accomplish each day. I appreciate your cheerful attitude. Have a great day and stay safe. Hugs
Evening/morning, Pat Sloan!! Loving the QAL, Thank you for your hard work. FYI McDonald's makes iced coffee and usually they have drive-thru service...give them a try! I love their French Vanilla Latte!!
Good morning Pat☀️you always say exactly what I need to do, I am going to sort my patterns today. Thanks so much for being here for all of us during this pandemic. Love you too ❤️
Dear Pat: It was 8:29 p.m. when I stopped sewing my star and ran out of bobbin thread. I didn't get done with the big star block, but I'm almost there! I did get the 8 blocks surrounding the main block sewed together. I'm going to get up earlier tomorrow morning and get the last two steps done. I'm nesting my seams. Directions don't tell you what ways to press the seams. I'm doing the best I can. I just sorted my rulers so I'm done there. Thanks aging for being with us all every day!
I love sorting, especially fabrics. Thanks for energizing me to get started today! And every day!
No problem sorting today. We unloaded our storage unit and I have about 15 more boxes to go through and today was the day I said I was going to go through at least 3.
I will sort my plastic cabinet that sits next to my sewing machine. I've been meaning to do this for a while. Today's the day. I'm happy to say that I'm doing well with this month's challenges.
Since I get 90% of my fabrics from thrift stores, my stash is a mish mash of everything. I need to MEASURE and sort by type. It's mostly apparel fabrics; knits, wovens, linings, silk, weird stuff for mock ups, and tons of wool. I'm sad when I see a piece of wool at a thrift store. Somebody might buy it who doesn't appreciate its unique quality, so...I have to adopt it and take it home.
I have sorted my sewing room over the last two months so it is pretty clean but I have a box from our 4-H sewing stuff I brought home and it has needed a to be sorted. Today is the day to get to that box. Thank you for giving these easy to accomplish challenges each day it gives direction and helps with focus when so many other thoughts could take over.
My favorite ruler is the Quilt in a Day half square triangle square up ruler. I love it. I have been making more things with HST's in it because of this super ruler.
Oh boy do I have stuff to sort! Now to figure out what I can get done!😁
Oh boy! Sorting day. I love to sort things. Thank you Pat for another fun challenge.
I sorted some finished quilt tops and found fabric for backs and pieced the backs. Now to get them on my longarm
I’m a bit lethargic this morning, watching too much current news, too much pain within it. Will finish my coffee, get dressed and go sort something. I know which container needs it and sorting involves having some control and making sense of it, right? Love my fabric, love your chats. Thanks! ❤️
I just sorted my 2 bags of scraps. I cut the up into the sizes I keep and threw the rest.
Does it count if I emptied, cleaned, & organized my kitchen cabinets yesterday after our stock up trip to the store? We have a very small kitchen with limited storage, so it took some creative rearranging. Now they are clean, neat, and well stocked. Such a good feeling. I need to spend time sorting my sewing/craft room, but that will have to wait until I get this next batch of masks finished and shipped/delivered. I think after that I will pick one area/ tote/etc. each week to get sorted. I know there will be many squirrels hiding in my stuff. lol It'll be a treasure hunt. Hope your Starbucks gets opened back up. Our favorite local coffee places are open for pick up, and it's nice to be able to support them during this time.
Ok, I will sort my green drawer/bin today. LOL...I am busy, so it will be only one today, but maybe I can do a drawer every couple of days. My studio is basically in good shape, but I do need to go through and put everything back where it should be. Cheers Pat!
Love your coffee fabric! I made an apron with that fabric! I collect wine and cherry fabrics. I have an entire large box of cherry fabrics!
Weird, our Starbucks with the drive throughs are closed, but the one in the Safeway store, which is walk up, is open.
I think I’ll sort through my sewing desk drawer today. It’s been very messy and I’ve put off going through it while cleaning and organizing my sewing room. Thanks for everything you do!!
I have plenty to sort but I always end up getting side tracked when I sort my fabric and they next thing you know I'm working on a new quilt.
Love sorting! Such a calming activity!
Ooh you should include the lovely playground fabric in one of your Stay at Home blocks
Morning from sunny Florida 😎
I’m missing my Starbuck. It was my daily routine and I miss there coffee
i miss going too
Sorting out fat quarters today!
That is the beauty of sorting, we find treasures!
I sorted my freezer!!!
Good idea. I will sort quilt patterns and other patterns I’ve printed out the last few months. And if time I’ll sort new thread spools too. I like coffee fabric too ❤️
Thank you for brightening my dsy!
I need to sort a lot but I am looking for specific fabric for an upcoming project I want to do so I will sort through a couple bins and one drawer. I am trying to now take pictures so I know what is in what.
The top of my rolling assistant needs s good cleaning out since I've been busy sewing
How do you make your iced coffee
Ooooooo the green with lighter green polka dot! I want it! Any idea who made it ?
nice video bro ,
I decided to sort through my quilting books and put them in some kind of order. Thanks for the challenge. On some of these challenges you make us think and sometimes outside the box and you cause us to look at things in which we probably wouldn't have noticed or thought about. Thanks again.
I can't seem to concentrate on anything complicated or any big undertaking 🙄
So I am crocheting wash clothes and ear savers for essential workers wearing masks all day every day.
I am finding little things are keeping my hands busy and mind calm .
I have a question? Did you finish sorting the green bin? Can you show us how it looks finished?
Hi Pat wondering if you would be able to talk about the Gemini machine behind you for cutting your 2.5" squares and also your sashiko? machine. I'd like to know what they do and if I need to get one or two!
Thanks
Where is Norm?
My recent hunt for novelty fabric for the Stay at Home quilt resulted in a huge pile of fabric so just 2 days ago I sorted it all to try and get it put away. But never fear, there is more to sort. A bookcase broke and there are patterns all over the closet floor. I will start that sort today.
I need to sort my binder of quilt patterns- many that have Pat Sloan’s name on them.😊
I have a lot of things to sort my craft life is taking over so it is somewhat overwhelming I will focus on a small area who knows that may motivate me to do more 😊
I just cleaned out an entire drawer of fat quarters for mask making. I have some that I have no idea how long they have been there or where they came from but now they will be laundered and used for the greater good! Bonus, I have an empty drawer to store something else!
So I’m weird and every quilt I finish I go and buy one of those $1 Rubbermaid containers and put that quilts left overs in one of those. Except all my white is in its own container cuz I only use one Bella white. I also sew in my garage so I can’t really have my fabric out at all times.
It feels somewhat overwhelming today but just getting started is better than not starting ok here i go....
I have SO much sorting and cutting....ugh!
It’s funny. While going to find my orphan blocks, I sorted one big bin. I will find a different bin that needs sorting. Thanks for the push. I am actually doing more sewing than I had before watching you in March. Since I have been organizing, I like being in the craft room. It is more restful and inviting.
I must have a hundred pens, pencils and markers. Every time you go to pull one it doesn't work. I'm going to sort through all the pens and pitch the ones that do not work. Same with blue line markers that have dried up.
Oh my this is me. I have so many all in coffee mugs and the overflow in boxes' how many pens does one person need
I threw about 50 away!
